Elbow Arthritis

Elbow Arthritis

There are 2 types of arthritis that can affect the elbow – osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Both of these will cause the elbow to become stiff and painful. Doing repetitive activities or pushing through the elbow will be sore and the joint will ache if it is not moved very often.

Common Causes

Common activities that can irritate this condition:

  • Lifting bags
  • Gardening
  • Pushing up through arms
